Influence of Polymer Latex on the Interlayer Bonding Performance of Cement Concrete

Adding polymer into cement concrete is used to increase the interlayer bonding performance. The impact of polymer on the interlayer bonding performance was studied by shear strength and tensile strength test. The mix design of the interface agent was optimized through the tensile bending tests of different fiber and polymer dosage. The impact of casting methods and interface agent mix was studied through tests. The test results show that: adding organic fiber and polymer into cement concrete could significantly increase the interlayer bond strength. The interface agent of SBR (styrene-butadiene rubber) latex modified cement paste has better tensile bonding properties. When the ratio of cement to DB-1 latex is 3:2, it will effectively increase the interlayer bonding performance of cement concrete.
